Harvest Dinner

Join us  November 23 from 5- 7 pm

 for our Harvest Dinner of Ham balls, cheesy potatoes, green beans, a roll and yummy pie- all for a free will offering.




Profits from the Harvest Dinner this year will be divided between Montgomery Street Preschool and Linda Petersen O’Dell for her medical expenses. A feature of this year’s dinner will be “Pies for Linda”, an opportunity to take home a homemade pie with the $15 or more donation going to help pay Linda’s medical bills.
  We are in need of donated "Pies for Linda" to sell. 
The Fellowship Uniting Neighbors (F.U.N.) encourage our members as well as the community support this event!
